ANDROID 8.0 OREO UPDATE FOR THE BLACKBERRY KEYONE IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER

Now that the BlackBerry KEY2 is official, TCL Communication – the firm behind BlackBerry Mobile – has turned its attention to future-proofing the handset’s predecessor, the BlackBerry KEYone. 

An update (‘ABA676’) started making the rounds for the KEYone earlier this week, which, according to Canadian carrier Rogers, bundles a number a changes intended to prepare the handset for the impending Android 8.0 Oreo upgrade.

The contents of the update are unclear, though it does seem as though it carries some deep-level changes as some folks noted receiving an error message when first attempting to install the release, caused by interference from a background application.

A simple reboot set them on the right path.

We also don’t know when the much-anticipated Android 8.0 upgrade will arrive on the handset. All we know is that it’s destined to include all the standard goodies baked into Oreo, including Adaptive Icons and Picture-in-Picture (PiP).
